Must see · Landmark · Tourist Spot
Feel like royalty at Queen's View Visitor Centre, where Queen Victoria enjoyed her favorite views. Pictures don’t do justice to what is said to be one of the most photographed views in Scotland. Revel over the sights of the River Tummel and the reflections of the mountains in the background. Afterwards, sip hot tea at the nearby tearoom. If driving, bring some extra change for parking.

    You can get an excellent view of classic Scottish Scenery from here, definitely worth a visit if you're in the area but I wouldn't drive too far out of the way to get here. As with a lot of similar...  more »

    Not worth the £2 parking charge. Sat on the picnic benches and the view was just trees meaning we couldn’t see the river.  more »

    Stunning view and worth the trip to see it if in the vicinity. Not sure would travel more than 30 minutes out of the way though. Cafe good, shop a bit meh. Quite popular with tourists so be aware that its likely to be busy at times.
  • By Ashley More
    Lovely place to visit. Great view and coffee shop. Visitor centre full of information of local area. Shop has some quite different items for sale than the usual Scottish shops.
